DETROIT – From Darnell Archey and Pete Campbell to Shelvin Mack and Avery Woodson, 3-point shooters have fueled Butler runs to college basketball’s Sweet 16.

The Bulldogs almost certainly need to make 3-pointers to return there.

No. 10 seed Butler (21-13) plays a rematch against No. 2 seed Purdue at 12:10 p.m. Sunday in the NCAA tournament. The Bulldogs are going for back-to-back Sweet 16s and a fourth such appearance in nine years.
